I am a queer writer based in London, making formally playful, poetic works of art for assorted audiences. I love to gather people together and move them. I love being with other people in the dark. And I love that when our time together is over, the work has only just begun.

Performance. Poems. Love Letters. Archives. Invitations. Gathering.​

"A poem can't free us from the struggle for existence, but it can uncover desires and appetites buried under the accumulating emergencies of our lives, the fabricated wants and needs we have had urged on us, have accepted as our own. It's not a philosophical or psychological blueprint; it's an instrument for embodied experience. But we seek that experience, or recognize it when it is offered to us, because it reminds us in some way of our need. After that rearousal of desire, the task of acting on that truth, or making love, or meeting other needs, is ours."
Adrienne Rich, 'Voices from the air'
